inference of manometer experiment
Answers
Answer:
A manometer is a device that measures air pressure using a container with a "U"-shaped tube open at one or both ends. ... The height of the fluid on the open side will be higher on that side when air pressure is less than the gas pressure and lower on the open side when the air pressure exceeds the gas pressure.
Answer:
A manometer is used to measure the pressure difference between two gases, often atmosphere and the gas being tested. A typical manometer consists of a U-shaped tube filled with either mercury or liquid. The long sides of the tube have a measuring scale marked off in millimeters. When a gas line is connected to one side of the manometer it shifts and the difference in the height of the liquid in each side is used to calculate the pressure of the gas line. The formula for calculating the pressure is pd = ρ g h, where pd = the pressure difference, ρ = the density of the liquid in the manometer; mercury equals 13,590 kg/m3; water equals 1,000 kg/m3, g = acceleration of gravity, 9.81 m/s2 and h = the height of the liquid in meters.
